You owe it to yourself to visit the Great White Store during its 21st Birthday Week. I Between Ourselves How to be happy though running a steam heater, i9 a question that besets the average citizen these cold Febru ary days. The trouble is, not one person In fifty really knows how to take care of a heater. Of course, this is very profit able to the coal dealer, but not very profitable to Mr. House Owner, who has to pay the bills. One splendid way to save coal and RETAIN HEAT is to set your chimney damper in a perpendicular position and then FORGET ABOUT IT. There Is a small hole in the damper disc of every furnace, which is sufficient In itself to cause ample draught. When thi9 disc is thrown clear back It creates too much draught, and your heat GOES UP THE CHIMNEY. Keep your fire bed alive and glow ing, but don’t tamper with the damper in your pipe. Do this, and see how much less work you have to perform.
